The Prince Rupert Community Arts Council awards grants to community cultural programs, as well as to post-secondary arts students.
The number of grants awarded each year depends upon the amount and availability of the fund. These grants are funded solely by proceeds from the annual Kaien Island Craft Fair held every November at the Civic Centre, and by grants received from the BC Arts Council.
